Standing around for an hour in the rainThe porcelin promise is breaking once againFill me with everything I want to hearThese are the same lines that I heard last yearAnd you always seem to talk and walk awaySaying things will start to happen anyday

And I say whenSo tell me whenAnd I say whenSo tell me when

I've heard so much about boats coming inWell I've seen no ships so I guess I should swimHow did I come to get caught in your wakeThe more that I give you the more you still takeAnd you always seem to talk and walk awaySaying things will start to happen any day

And I say whenSo tell me whenAnd I say whenSo tell me when

Monday is tuesday then march becomes mayThe days of my life are just ticking away
